Focusing on the impact of colonialism and coloniality, the book explores how Eurocentric ideologies have dehumanized the global south, particularly Africa, leading to conflicts and developmental crises. It argues that this has resulted in Africans being viewed as non-thinking objects, undermining their identity and agency. Offering a diagnosis of these mental challenges, it proposes solutions for decolonizing thought, emphasizing the importance of humanizing education, rewriting African narratives, and fostering an epistemic rebellion against imposed ideologies.
